President Marcia V. Keizs
On Valentine's Day (February 14) 2005, Dr. Keizs became the sixth president of York College in Jamaica, Queens. York College, a senior college of the City University of New York (CUNY) established in 1966, enrolls over 8,242 students in liberal arts, career and professional programs on its modern 50-acre downtown Jamaica campus. In addition to offering baccalaureate degrees in the liberal arts and sciences, business, health, human services and teacher education professional programs. York is the only CUNY senior college offering majors in gerontology, biotechnology, information systems management, and a BS/MS degree in occupational therapy. York is the home of the CUNY Aviation Institute and the Northeastern Regional Laboratory of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Under Dr. Keizs' seven year leadership, York College has strengthened its academic programs by gaining national accreditations and creating new academic offerings in Aviation Management, Pharmaceutical Science, Journalism and Generic Nursing. The president has been credited with placing York firmly on the path to excellence within the CUNY system.
Over the last seven years, York College has increased its full-time faculty by approximately 40% and established an Undergraduate Research Program and a collaborative Honors Program with the FDA while structuring the College into three schools—School of Business & Information Systems; School of Health & Behavioral Sciences; and School of Arts & Sciences. Student enrollment has grown by 25% with freshman enrollment experiencing an unprecedented 61% growth over five years during which freshman admissions standards were raised and a private fundraising campaign for Merit Scholars was undertaken. By 2011, enrollment continued to climb by 5.4%.
Dr. Keizs serves on the NCAA Division III President's Council and the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) Council of State Representatives. She also serves on the boards of the American Council on Education's Commission on Effective Leadership (ACE); the Morris Heights Health Center; the Greater Jamaica Development Corporation; and the Jamaica YMCA. Dr. Keizs is the founding editor of the New York Carib News and has published articles in her area of specialty, African American Literature. Dr. Keizs was recently appointed by Governor Cuomo to the newly established New York City Regional Economic Development Council which is charged with redesigning the relationship between the state government and businesses to stimulate regional economic development and create jobs statewide.
A native of Kingston, Jamaica, Dr. Keizs is a graduate of the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, Canada (B.A. 1967), and Teachers College, Columbia University (M.A. 1971 and Ed.D. 1984). She holds a certificate in Educational Management from the Harvard Graduate School of Education (1995).
Dr. Keizs has thirty years of experience in the CUNY system as both an administrator and a professor. Before her appointment as president of York College, she was the vice president of academic affairs at Bronx Community College/CUNY for seven years.

Juan Williams of The Hill accused Israel of overkill in its actions against Hamas' attacks. Charles Krauthammer set Williams straight, and pointed out that the "overkill" perception is due to overt manipulation of an anti-Israel media by Hamas.

Creating a Budget in 4 Simple Steps
Cash, moolah, dinero, money. Whatever you call it, one thing is for sure: it takes hard work to come by and it's sure easy to spend.
That's where a budget comes in!
Having a budget will help you to spend your money on the things you really, want— like a vacation, a new car or just plain old peace of mind vs. where you don't want it to go (like credit card companies, banks, or bill collectors).
Trust me— creating a budget is quick, easy and you won't get hurt. Plus, it will save you money!
Use our budgeting worksheet as you follow the four simple steps to create your budget. Let's get this started!
Step 1 – Tally Your Income
First, you need to tally your income. How much money do you bring in every month? This should include all your sources of income after taxes.
Step 2 – Make a List of Your Expenses
Make a list of all the things you have to pay for and what they cost. This should include your housing expense, car payment, utilities, gas, groceries and a few extra dollars in case of an emergency. (For more information on saving for an emergency, read Building an Emergency Fund.)
A good starting point is to review your checking account and credit card statements and assign purchases to "need" categories (like housing, utilities, gas) and "want" categories (like feeding your coffee addiction or going out for lunch). Total your "need" categories to get you mandatory expenses.
Step 3 – Calculate Your Spending Money
Take your total take-home pay (from Step 1) and subtract your mandatory monthly expenses (from Step 2). The number remaining is your "spending money"— it's what you have to save, spend, or do with as you'd like.
If your "spending money" is a negative number, you'll have to make some changes before we can put together a solid budget. These changes may mean:
Step 4 – Create a Roadmap for Your Money
Now, you can take a look at your "spending money" and decide on where you want to spend it.
Whatever your goal, this "spending money" is your starting point to getting there.
Helpful Tools
Keeping a budget isn't a one time thing. Like working out, getting in good financial shape takes commitment. There are several types of financial fitness equipment that can help your stay on track.
And, there you have it. All you need to know about creating a budget in four simple steps. If you have any more questions or need more information, please visit the Life. Money. You. section on our website, www.bcu.org.

You have probably many topics about this problem, but because the new
site all google results redirecting me to the main forum page and makes
it harder to find a solution. :(
But im following the tutorials of Introduction to C++ with Game Development.
But, i have an Unhandled exception problem at part 2. I know it means
that i try to access a value that is NULL but i'm not sure how to solve
Here it crashed, i think SDL_GetVideoSurface(); is not returning any value.
SDL_Surface* s = SDL_GetVideoSurface();

Im using latest Visual studio 2008 Express version.
Hope this is enough info to help ;)

100% natural Lamb! Great for big and small dogs alike, these treats can be broken up and used for training. Excellent alternative for dogs with allergies and dogs on a lamb diet.
- Another excellent product Review by Helene
Your Rating
I have never been disappointed with anything I have purchased from value pet supplies, the sliced lamb lung is no exception! I had purchased this product the first time from another company at a far higher price and my dogs absolutely love it, when I saw I could purchase 11 pounds for $125 I was extremely pleased, the value is unsurpassed by anyplace I have found and the quality is never lacking. When the Fed ex truck turns down our block my pups go wild, they think something delicious is on its way to our house! :-) (Posted on 4/17/14)

- By Far the BEST Dog Treats ever! Review by Carole
Your Rating
We have been feeding our dog, Hairy the Horrible, dried lamb lungs for a number of years and he just loves them. When we get the bag out to give him a few pieces he salivates and gets so excited. Value Pet Supplies is great doing business with as their service is SUPERIOR and this product is a quality item at a fair price. We recommend this company and the ValueBull USA sliced Lamb Lungs. And the bonus is the product is made in this country instead of China. (Posted on 11/5/13)

I've been searching for the Lamb Back Flips since buying them at a stockdog trial last year. Great product, all natural AND not made in China!! Found them available in bulk through ValuePetSupplies. First time purchaser and now lifetime shopper. Great product, great communication, great service. Couldn't ask for more. (Posted on 5/9/13)
- Excellent product and quantity for reasonable price Review by Pete's Mom
Your Rating
Just what Pete needed--crisp but soft enough for tender teeth. Lots and lots of pieces of all sizes. Very breakable if needing smaller sizes--Pete is 75 pounds so the bigger the better! I put them in a big pretzel jar and he leads me to them every night at 10pm so he can get his 'share'. The lamb lung's shelf life is long--the small packages you get in the store are just too expensive and these are a great bargain. Pete and I highly recommend them. (Posted on 11/27/12)
- Can't Get Enough! Review by Clancy's Human
Your Rating
This is our second large order and we are delighted to have enough for ourselves and enough to give to friends. They are portable, don't get stale, and fit nicely into boredom relieving toys for when we are away. A treat as we leave sees us happily on our way, since the dogs--and the cat--are content. Thanks so much for a great product (Posted on 4/10/12)

I just got my Maltese in August when her former Mommy died. I have tried several trats with her but she has always preferred the moist Milkbone - and I'd prefer not to give her those! Her doctor had recommend lamb for her so I looked up lamb treats on this site. She LOVES them!!! They are one of the few "crunchy" things she will eat, so I am especially happy! I'm here for my second of MANY bags for the future! (Posted on 11/28/11)

Have been buying various brands of freeze-dried Lumb Lung for over 10 years, and I don't know of a dog that doesn't go absolutely NUTS for them. However, Value Pet Supplies Value Bull USA Sliced Lamb Lumg are hands down the very best buy! And you can use them without worry, because they are made in the USA (not China). Without a doubt, the absolutely Number1 favorite treat! (Posted on 7/16/11)

This is a great price for Lamb Lung, especially if you have multiple dogs, much better price than the Baa Baa Q's. Love the free shipping, too! My dogs all LOVE this item, they won't come inside unless they get one! We buy on a regular basis. Thank you for offering these "natural" treats at such a great price!!!

- Four happy dogs Review by Vickolator
Your Rating
My dogs would take down a buffalo to get at these treats. They can be used in larger pieces or easily broken down as training treats or for small dogs. While they have an aroma irrisistible to the dogs, they do not stink up the cupboard or, when traveling, the car. Even though my husband is the weak link and tends to over-treat, these are not a high cal/high fat item. I have given them as a gift to my friend whose ill, older dog has trouble chewing hard things anymore. He eats these with no difficulty and with great relish. This is my all around favorite dog treat. (Posted on 3/10/11)

The Melancholy May 2, 2013: Everybody was feeling the melancholy. Each felt it in her own way. They used the word melancholy because of global post history. The humour became a politics. The ones who claimed they weren't melancholic were in denial. Theirs was the deepest form. Some were just tired, a word they would repeat to themselves vaguely. There was dread. [...]

Based on the Wilderness Index developed by the Australian Heritage Commission (R. Lesslie, in litt., 30 May 1998). The wilderness value of any given point is essentially a measure of remoteness from human influence and is assessed on the basis of: remoteness from settlement (settled land or points of permanent occupation), from access (constructed vehicle access routes), and apparent naturalness (remoteness from permanent manmade structures) (Lesslie and Maslen, 1995). The analysis is carried out on a grid, using data from the Digital Chart of the World (DCW), and remoteness is measured as a distance from each grid point to the nearest feature of each class within a given radius (generally 30 km). Wilderness value is the sum of standardised values for each indicator class.Resource Type: Spatial Data / Maps

A look at the Sentinel's All-County players and notable standouts:
The task of putting together an All-Central Florida team, for any sport, usually proves to be a daunting task for Sentinel staffers.
Overall, the area is usually so good and balanced in different sports that it's difficult to narrow down a select a handful of players.
That proved to be the case, and then some, in girls volleyball.
With two state champions, two additional state finalists, a total of nine teams that made it to the regional finals, a slew of top recruits and plenty of multi-star squads, the talent pool was simply overwhelming.
We used a variety of methods to determine our All-Central Florida first and second team, which can be read HERE.
Reduced space in print meant we had to reduce our All-CFL teams from four to two and also had to trim down All-County selections and notables. Because that was already written up, we thought it would at least make for a good read online.
*If a player is on the All-CFL team, they were not included in the honorable mentions
County honorees
Lindsey Owens
Sr., OH, Bishop Moore
Buzz: The Virginia Tech signee has more than 1,100 kills in the past three seasons and led the Class 4A state champs to a 32-0 record.
Other Notables: Nicole Dominguez, Fr., OH/S, Apopka; Gray Malias, Soph., MB, Bishop Moore; Oakley Attaway, Soph., OH, Boone; Megan Chevalier, Sr. OPP, Boone; Marcella Emmanuelli, Soph., S , Cypress Creek; Michelle Maki, Sr., OH, Dr. Phillips; Briana Jackson, Sr., S, Dr. Phillips; Heidi Wehner, Soph., OH, Edgewater; Megan Miller, Soph., OH/S, Foundation Academy; Delanie Hansen, Sr., S, Freedom; Sarah Nemes, Sr., S, Lake Nona; Katie Knight, Sr., OH, Olympia; Scout Farrow, Jr., S, Olympia; Briana Stowell, Soph., S/RS, Orangewood Christian.
Hailey Luke
Sr. OH/S, Lake Brantley
Buzz: A FSU signee, Luke proved to be one of the area's top overall players, adding 317 digs to her impressive offensive numbers.

"Clark After Dark: Viva Flamenco" at the Clark February 20
For Immediate Release
February 05, 2009
Embrace that inner gypsy with a seductive evening of smoldering passion, flavors, music, and dance inspired by the romantic culture of southern Spain during "Clark After Dark: Viva Flamenco" at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute. From 8 pm to midnight on Friday, February 20, indulge in tasty tapas as the sangria flows amid the staccato hand clapping, castanets, and music. Admission is $10 ($8 per member) at the door, and you must be 21+ to enter. No costume? No problem. Supplies will be available to fashion tissue paper flowers to wear behind your ear.
Small Planet Dancers, a performing dance troupe based in Westfield, MA, will teach matadors and senoritas basic Flamenco dance movements, the history of the fiery dance, and castanet rhythms, palmas (hand clapping), and zapateado (foot stomping). In addition to leading three workshops, Small Planet Dancers will perform "The Spanish Gentlemen," showcasing the contrasting cultures of a Spaniard, "Gypsy!" performed in a sixteen-yard skirt, and "Firedance," a traditional Flamenco dance.
DJ Tigerbeatz will provide a mix of old and new Spanish/Latin influenced music to create a frenzy of flowing, twirling skirts. Tigerbeatz lives on Martha's Vineyard and is a self-proclaimed "glorified vinyl junkie" who looks at her collecting forays as an ethnomusical archeological dig. DJ Tigerbeatz has a weekly show on WVVY 93.7, Martha's Vineyard Community Radio, and is drawn to international cultures, language and music. In addition to playing on Martha's Vineyard, she has also played in Brooklyn, and at The Enormous Room and The Good Life in Boston.
Snacks with a Spanish flair will include bacalau (salt cod spread), calamari with dipping sauces, Spanish cheeses, Serano style ham, panadons (pastries with roasted peppers, artichokes, olives, chorizo), paella suppli (saffron rice balls with peas, peppers, and seafood), and roast pork and Manchego mini sandwiches. The cash bar will feature Cava (sparkling wine), Spanish red and white wines, beer, sangria, and dry sherry. Complimentary soft drinks and water will be available.
The evening will also include visits to the Clark's print room. A raffle will be held with prizes provided by Blue Q of Pittsfield, MA.
This series of hip happenings takes you around the world and transports you through time with music and dancing, out-of-the-ordinary activities, exotic snacks, and late-night encounters with art. Don't miss "Clark After Dark: Planet Clark" on March 20.
The Clark is located at 225 South Street in Williamstown, Massachusetts. The galleries are open Tuesday through Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm (daily in July and August). Admission is free November through May. Admission June 1 through October 31 is $12.50 for adults, free for children 18 and younger, members, and students with valid ID.

Maestro Lappin
A gifted pianist, recording artist, broadcaster and music personality, Bob Lappin was among the most innovative and creative talents on today's concert stage. His keyboard skills, panache and genuine love for a wide spectrum of music provide the impetus for him to create programs that appeal to all ages. He's as much at home with the music of Jerome Kern and Andrew Lloyd Webber as he is with Stevie Wonder.
Unlike many pops organizations that draw on orchestrations from commercial libraries, The Palm Beach Pops' programs reflect Maestro Lappin's musical instinct in the unique and diverse themes he develops. He researched each concept in great depth, formulated the final program, and then recruited the best talent to bring his ideas to life. Behind this passion is his dedication to the orchestra's preservation and growth.
Maestro Lappin earned his music degree from Ithaca College, then signed with MCA (Music Corporation of America), and then toured throughout North America with his trio and orchestra. Moving to the Palm Beaches in 1982, he was determined to build a world-class pops orchestra. The Palm Beach Pops' debut concert, in 1992 at the Palm Beach Auditorium, launched what has become one of the finest orchestras in the country.
Maestro Lappin's achievements have not gone unnoticed. In 2006 the City of Palm Beach proclaimed January 11th Bob Lappin Day and in May of that year he conducted and performed with the New York Pops at Carnegie Hall. In January of 2002 Mayor Joel T. Daves presented the Key to the city of West Palm Beach to him in recognition of all The Palm Beach Pops has contributed to the community through music and outreach programs for children. Again, in December 2003, West Palm Beach Mayor Lois Frankel presented him the Key to the City and declared December 1, 2003 as Bob Lappin Day. In February of 2002, Mayor Steve Abrams presented the Key to the City of Boca Raton to Maestro Lappin. This second honor also recognized his success in keeping the Boca Pops music library in Palm Beach County.
In 2004 Maestro Lappin was honored by Florida Atlantic University when they awarded him the 2004-2005 Cultural Leader of the Year Award for his outstanding leadership, community outreach and education. Maestro Lappin was the first recipient of the prestigious award. At that time he also accepted the position of Florida Atlantic University's Distinguished Artist in Residence.
In 2006 Maestro Lappin appeared at Carnegie Hall in a star-studded New York Pops tribute to its late founder Skitch Henderson. During this concert he conducted the orchestra and played the piano to shouts of bravo and standing ovations for his interpretation of Strings On Fire, The Man I Love and Long Ago and Far Away . Other guest artists appearing that evening included Liza Minnelli, Elaine Stritch, Kid Rock, Darlene Love and more.
Maestro Lappin has appeared as guest conductor with the Pittsburgh, Omaha, Calgary, Chattanooga and Florida Orchestras, and with the Seattle and Syracuse Symphonies, to name a few. He and The Palm Beach Pops were invited to perform at Avery Fisher Hall in New York City's Lincoln Center -- (a first for any Florida orchestra) -- and for the North Shore Hospital at the Phipps Estate on Long Island. Proud of what the orchestra has accomplished in fifteen years, Maestro Lappin was committed to leading the Palm Beach Pops into its second decade.

John Linnell Senior was a landscape and portrait painter. As a young man he became a pupil of John Varley; his fellow students William Mulready and William Henry Hunt became Linnell's lifelong friends. His further art training took place at the Royal Academy Schools. His early career was principally devoted to portrait painting; subsequently landscapes came to predominate in his output. John Linnell was a close friend of William Blake and became father-in-law to Samuel Palmer. In the course of his long career Linnell enjoyed friendly relations with many other artists, including the much younger generation of the Pre-Raphaelites. Linnell's landscapes are taken in the English countryside and often include figures and animals. They have a balance of composition and proportion which allows one to asociate Linnell with the European tradition of landscape classicism. — Christopher Newall
Linnell kept sketchbooks in which he recorded his finished pictures, divided into portraits and landscapes. In doing so he may have been paying homage to Claude Lorraine, who had created his famous liber veritatis to serve as a safeguard against forgery. Linnell lived in London until 1852 when he moved to Redhill in Surrey, where he remained for the last thirty years of his life. Three of John Linnell Senior's sons also became painters.

Topic review (newest first)
Hi, bobym.
I repeated it because of this:
I wanted him to be sure that the answer is only 3. 1 answer not 2.
But, what you said in #93 was already told and did not need repeating.
Nope, I was dealing with a far more important concept and did not answer that question. Do you see it now?
Actually, #94 is me feeling you have not understood the question.
Everything you are saying is true but you are missing the point of my post #93 which essentially makes your post #94 non - essential.
We could, but, there is still no special name for non-principal roots.
We could say it is the root of the equation x^2 - 9 = 0.
He is asking this:"If we call 3 the principal square root of 9, then what kind of square root of 9 is -3?". The answer is that there is no name given to it.
When 9 is in the square root sign that means principal square root, just the 3.
Thanks for that!
It was called imaginary because in the beginning when the concept of the root of a negative number was proposed most mathematicians did not like it. They called them imaginary numbers to sort of poke fun at the whole idea. Later, as it caught on, complex numbers was name given for them.
Please do you have an idea as to why it is called complex or imaginary?
Both 3 and -3 when squared are 9. But only 3 is the principal square root.

Discounted TV packages for Sky and BT Sport are available for RFU clubs and there have been some pricing changes for the 2013/14 season.
The Sky Base package has now been removed from the marketplace and will not be available to new subscribers. However, the RFU has negotiated that existing Sky Base customers will remain on this package.
From October 1, 2013, the price for new Sky Ultimate customers who have not been a Sky subscriber for the last three months will change to £177 (ex VAT) per month until June 30, 2014. Through the RFU's relationship with Sky this new price includes an additional 25% discount on the current Sky Ultimate RFU price.
Sports clubs would normally fall under Sky's General Agreement, the cost of which is £453 (ex VAT). Therefore this new price still represents a significant discount on what is available from Sky in the market.
Existing customers who are on Sky Base as at October 1, 2013 can also benefit from the Sky Ultimate price of £177 (ex VAT) if they wish to upgrade.
For new Sky Ultimate subscribers, Sky will also provide marketing support to clubs to help communicate the value of Sky's content to members and to encourage more people into clubs, as well as offering access to their marketing collateral.
Although Sky will not be showing any Premiership Rugby from this season, it has enhanced its rugby portfolio in other areas. In addition to our QBE Internationals, the Heineken Cup and Amlin Challenge Cup, they will show an increased number of Greene King IPA Championship matches, additional autumn internationals for France and Italy, England Saxons and Under 20s, the HSBC Sevens World Series, the Rugby Club, and a lot of Southern Hemisphere rugby.
All of this top action is available through both the Sky Ultimate and Sky Base packages.
The Sky Ultimate package includes Sky Sports 1, 2, 3 and 4, as well as Sky Sports F1, Sky Sports News, Sky 3D, British Eurosport 1 & 2, and Sky Entertainment Channels.
Sky has set up a dedicated number for any questions on the RFU offer on 0844 241 1172.
Premiership Rugby has appointed BT Sport as sole broadcaster for the Aviva Premiership from this season. BT Sport is available for £75 per month (ex VAT), giving access to all 69 live Aviva Premiership matches in your club. This offer also includes a free box and standard installation for those clubs without Sky equipment.
Everyone that signs up will be entitled to a 25% discount on one order made through Gilbert Rugby online*.
The BT Sport Pack is a collection of brand new, dedicated TV channels, BT Sport 1, BT Sport 2 and ESPN, only available from BT. As well as all the live Aviva Premiership Rugby, this also includes all the live JP Morgan Asset Management 7s and French Top 14 action. Plus 38 live Barclays Premier League football matches, FA Cup with Budweiser and much more.
*discount only applies through www.gilbertrugby.com
For further information, just call BT directly on 0800 678 1070 or visit btsportbusiness.com.

CHICAGO (AP) — Imagine if retirement were financed by scholarships, grants and loans.
You could qualify for a substantial aid package to pay for your senior years. Your stellar job "grades" and career achievements would be rewarded with significant merit aid.
Alas, no such aid exists. Paying for retirement is an expensive obligation that you have to handle on your own.
The one similarity with college is you likely will need to set aside money for many years in order to take care of it.
And if you need to save for your children's college as well as your own retirement, you've got a daunting challenge on your hands.
The cost of a college education continues to rise faster than inflation, at roughly 5 percent per year. The average sticker-price for four years at a private college is now more than $150,000 — including $38,589 for the 2011-12 school year. Even going to your state's university runs close to half that total at an average $17,131 a year, according to the College Board.
Retirement is far more expensive than that.
How do you balance those important objectives? Here are five considerations to keep top-of-mind as you juggle both:
1. Put retirement first.
Student loan debt has risen above $1 trillion and the average student's debt at graduation now exceeds $25,000, according to the Project on Student Debt.
Paying for college has to take a back seat to retirement, says Kalman Chany, a New York financial aid consultant and author of "Paying for College Without Going Broke."
The real dilemma is whether you'll have enough money left for retirement after repaying your debt, Chany says.
Don't give in to the temptation to pitch in heavily for college without making sure your retirement savings are on track. You may well leave yourself short in the future, especially with retirements now often spanning three decades.
2. Start early on college savings.
It's critical to start saving early for college, especially as tuition costs continue to accelerate.
Set up a 529 college savings plan to take advantage of the tax-free withdrawals for education costs.
Parents of a baby born today would have to save $385 a month in order to afford housing and tuition at the average state school, according to Kent Smetters, professor at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School. If you don't start saving until the child is in middle school, the required monthly savings amount jumps to $780.
3. Set aside 11 to 15 percent of pay for retirement.
There isn't a consensus on exactly how much savings you should have for retirement. It's generally thought you'll need to make anywhere from 70 percent to 85 percent of your pre-retirement income to maintain a similar standard of living in retirement.
To reach that level of financial security, many financial planners say a good general rule of thumb is to focus on saving 11 percent to 15 percent of pay over a 40-year career.
A good way for young parents to start is by contributing 3 percent to 401(k) accounts if their employers offer them. Or up to 6 percent if that's what's needed to qualify for the company's free "match" money.
Then whenever you get a raise, put all but 1 percent toward your retirement account, advises Cheryl Krueger, an actuary with Growing Fortunes Financial Partners in Schaumburg, Ill. So if you get a 3 percent raise, bump up your 401(k) contribution by 2 percent.
4. Involve your child in the college planning process.
Convey the importance of college to your child early even if you don't tell her about the financial aspects until later.
Carving off part of each allowance for college savings makes clear that the responsibility will be shared. Krueger, for example, requires that 20 percent of her 11-year-old son's allowance go to savings — half of that for college.
Then in high school you can get into the numbers. Lay out the parameters for a decision, such as telling your son or daughter that you'll pay for the equivalent of four years at a state school but can afford no more. Be aware that it's common for a student to take five or even six years to graduate.
5. Work at reducing the cost of college.
Several strategies can enable you to avoid paying full price.
One is to encourage your child to graduate a semester or two early. Taking as many Advanced Placement courses as possible in high school, and perhaps a community college class or two in the summer, could give a student a full year's worth of college credit.
Another is to spend the first year or two at a local community college, an increasingly popular option, before transferring to a four-year college. The average two-year program costs just $2,713 a year.
Applying strategically to colleges also can yield big savings.
Many private colleges offer extremely generous merit aid to students with strong grades and standardized test scores, even if they weren't at the top of their class.
And some states offer reciprocity for students from neighboring states to attend without paying out-of-state tuition costs, which can be triple the price of in-state.

Pictures of the WDI EcoFlush tanks that are going bad.
WDI Technology EcoFlush
Consumer Reports in the August 2009 issue picks the Gerber Dual Flush as their top choice for dual flush toilets.
However, we no longer sell the Gerber with WDI Dual Flush combination.
We have had to replace more than 40% of the tanks in the first year of production due to failure of the actuator mechanism.
They are a piece of junk.
Shame on CR for not doing your homework.
This dual flush tank has been on the market for a year now.
It's a design that should have never left the factory.
If Consumer Reports had any feeling for the consumer, they would have given this model a "Don't buy" rating.
If you buy a Gerber Ultraflush, don't get the dual flush.
The 1.1 Flushmate or the 1.6 Flushmate would be a better choice then the Dual 1.1/1.6 made in China that is failing too often. When 40% fail in the first year, that is ridiculous

I just talked to Mike at Cascade Water about consumer complaints on toilets.
The toilet with the most complaints is the Gerber Ultraflush DF-21-318 dual flush.
That coincides with my experience too.
Consumer Reports gives the Gerber DF-21-318 it's highest grade, and the rest of us think that it's junk.
The folks reporting to Cascade Water and the folks reporting to Love Plumbing & Remodel realize that the pressure tank has problems.
The Gerber dual flush by WDI is not lasting.

I just installed the Mansfield 148-119 a few weeks ago. I thought it had the flushmate technology. I wish I had seen this earlier.
What is the warranty on this and is mansfield responsible for the warranty? Does a part have to be replaced or does the whole pressure tank have to be replaced?
Thanks in advance,
I've been replacing the entire tank.Does a part have to be replaced or does the whole pressure tank have to be replaced?
Consumer reports is good for some things but they have gone way WAY overboard on the "green."
People should be concerned with the was e of clean water and they should be informed and make behavioral and purchase decisions with the health of the planet as a factor.
But I recently studied their clothes washing machine recommendations vs what I could garner from asking friends and neighbors and reading of actual experiences with given models and I am convinced that rather than just taking the green aspects of of an appliance or fixture into account and giving it a specific grade in that column, they are giving the green aspects a huge weight in general ratings.
So with front loading washers, two big aspects that result in the most returns and dissatisfaction, a) smells from mold or mildew, and b) vibration, are now catching consumer reports by surprise as major issues, not to mention that some of the highest rated machines do not clean or rinse that well, or even have decent records on reliability and repair costs.!
I am no expert on toilets but I bet the same thing is happening.
Though we respect your opinion, we have a few corrections to the information regarding Gerber's Dual Flush toilets and the WDI flushmometer tank. The comments below come directly from WDI with some input from Gerber Plumbing Fixtures.
The web site lists WDI's Eco-Flush B8100 Dual Flush pressure assist system as "Not Recommended" in conjunction with the Gerber Dual Flush toilet due to complaints about the Flush Mechanism breaking. Gerber's Ultra Dual Flush toilet is a product within a product. WDI has made adjustments to that system and provides a review of these changes below which includes modifications made to the actuator mechanism to correct this problem.
We welcome you to re-evaluate this product. Please let us know where we can send a sample so you can make your own assessment. If you deem appropriate, we would appreciate your updating your website to include the most current product information.
Brief background:
The Eco-Flush system was created 6-years ago by focusing on making the unit easier to flush and increasing the overall performance of the toilet. Additionally, test results show the Eco-Flush to be quieter than pressure-assist units by other manufacturers.
Eco-Flush incorporates a "feather touch" activation system which requires very little force to operate and is fully ADA compliant. Unfortunately, the original flush actuator mechanism was designed for traditional use, not "foot flushing" and other rigorous flushing techniques sometimes used in commercial applications. As soon as this issue was brought to our attention we immediately reinforced our Flush Activation System and have had very good results ever since.
We understand that there are still units in the marketplace with our original Flush Activation System, but our Technical Support Team is on hand to send out replacement parts that are easily installed by the business owner or homeowner. If you or any customers ever have any questions or concerns regarding Eco-Flush, they can contact our Technical Support Team directly at 800-391-9821. This phone number is also printed on a label that is affixed to every Eco-Flush unit so we are always just a phone call away. Our experienced team is available Monday – Friday 8:00 am to 5:00 pm PST and is able to trouble shoot problems over the phone and then provide any necessary parts. ECO-Flush proudly stands behind our 10-year warranty and we have tens of thousands of satisfied customers.
The Eco-Flush Dual Flush system is the first and only Dual Flush Pressure Assist System available in the world. It is designed to flush 4 liters of water for liquid waste and 6 liters of water for solid waste by simply moving the flush lever in the "down" or "up" position. However, Eco-Flush also offers 1.1 GPF and 1.6 GPF models to fit a wide variety of pressure assisted toilets.
At Eco-Flush we strive to produce the highest quality pressure assist systems available in the market. We constantly strive to improve our products and listen very closely to all issues that come from actual users. It is only by listening to your customers that you can truly become a better company.
We would welcome the opportunity to discuss these issues with you in greater detail so that you once again gain the confidence to recommend the Eco-Flush Dual Flush system to your readers. We can be reached directly at 949-250-4576.
Last edited by Terry; 11-25-2009 at 09:08 AM. Reason: Changed Flushmate to Flushmometer
I never sold or installed any of these for commercial applications.the original flush actuator mechanism was designed for traditional use, not "foot flushing" and other rigorous flushing techniques sometimes used in commercial applications.
They were sold to home owners trying to be Green.
I'm sure they weren't flushing toilets in their own home with their feet.
Like you say, it takes very little finger pressure to make them flush.
And I guess, very little can be too much.
Since WDI is aware of the problem,
Is there a recall on the old units?
Have you pulled the bad stock and replaced them with the "better" parts?
How would anyone know if they have an "improved" tank, or if they have the "bad" tank?
Is it a model number change?
The WDI Flushmometer is not the same company as Flushmate.
WDI is owned by Globe Union of China
These are two very separate companies.

Hi Terry
We bought a couple of the "Consumer reports" highly rated Gerber toilets from you. I do want to thank you for the prompt replacement tanks that failed 3 times during the first year. On your blog I saw that WDI bragged about better parts on newer models. Since we have one of the two that appears to on its way to malfunctioning again what parts are available to make them better as they fail ?? Any help is appreciated

We're have a problem with the handle on our dual-flush unit. EcoFlush sent us a flush valve control replacement part which we're going to replace as soon as my husband's got a weekday off (so we can call EcoFlush if we run into problems). Terry, in your experience does replacing the flush valve control do the trick?
We have a problem with our toilets, and my online research led me to your plumbing forums. When I realized that you were right next door (we're on Hollywood Hill in Woodinville), I thought I would reach out to you for advice on the problem and assistance in resolving it.
In our house in Colorado, we put in Gerber Ultra Flush toilets, and we were consistently happy with them. When we moved back to Woodinville in 2008, we did some remodeling on the house that we bought. That work included placing Gerber Dual Flush toilets everywhere. We're happy with the performance of these toilets, at least when they perform. But we've found (as apparently many others have also found) that sometimes the toilet just won't flush. Lift or press the handle, and nothing happens. I have always eventually been able to get the toilet to flush, but I don't actually know what I'm doing to get it to work. I just try a lot of different things, and eventually it flushes. And the problem is getting worse. The toilet in the master bath has been getting into this state several times a week lately. I worry that it's about to quit permanently. Others around the house have (so far) only had occasional malfunctions. (Fortunately, not when guests are here.)
My questions to you are: Can this situation be resolved without replacing the toilet? Or should we just switch to some other low-flow toilet? And if we're replacing, do we have to replace the entire toilet, or can we just replace the back? That is, would it be easier to switch back to Ultra Flush than to switch to some other option? (By the way, two of the five toilets have Toto heated seats.) Finally, if we're going to make changes, should we do all five toilets at once? Are the others eventually going to fail, like the one in the master bath?
Thanks in advance,
Chuck L

I quit selling the dual flush tanks by WDI.
You could switch them to the 1.6 gallon tanks with the Flushmate unit.
Those have been working much better.
The Flushmate tank is made in Detroit Michigan.
The WDI dual flush is made in China.
If you were replacing the entire toilet, then the Toto line has been working much better.
If you can talk to people that sold you the toilets into swapping tanks, that would be you most cost effective way to go.
Otherwise, I would look into the Toto Drake.
Better performance then the Gerber line, for less money, and better looking porcelain.

Hi Terry,
I am a plumber here in Calgary. About four years ago, my wholesaler recommended the Mansfield EcoFlush toilet to me. The WC'c in my own home were not working well so I exchanged all of them for the EcoFlush units. Although I found them very noisy, scaring my youngest girl and always enticing comments from house guests, they simple were the best flushing toilet I had ever used. They never plugged and the self cleaning action was the best I had seen in a long time. I was ready to recommend them to my builders and then they started to act up. Like other posters on this site, I usually could get them going again but was never sure of what I did. Finally two of the four that I had bought would not work so the wholesaler gave me two new tanks. After installation, all four of them worked well until last week. Suddenly, another one of my toilets just wouldn't flush. I have all kinds of replacement parts so I took the whole thing apart and replaced everything. Once put back together, it was working good as new. Two days later, it craped out on me again. I haven't been able to get it going since.
What bugs me the most is that I have no clue how to properly service the unit. I can take it apart and put it back together but I don't know what to fix or if how to determine what part is faulty. I've asked the wholesaler to have a representative contact me or send me a troubleshooting guide on the tank but have received no help. I also wrote to to WDI asking for advise and some help diagnosing and repairing the problem. Did not receive a response. Next up, call the 1-800 number. These toilets are not cheap and I have a lot invested in them. Roughly $400.00 a crack times 4. I would rather repair them than replace them.
If you have any ideas on repairing the units, I'd like to hear them.
We have this toilet and it worked for about two months, then stopped flushing reliably. Called the company and they sent a new flush mechanism. Very prompt service. Because of the shape of our tank, it was not an easy task to replace this part. Would have to remove all of the insides to replace the flush mechanism. So, we tried just removing the two little caps on it and replacing the springs inside with the springs that came in the new unit. It worked! Flushed reliably again for about 3 months. Now, back to never knowing if it will flush. If we take off the caps, the toilet will flush while the cap is off, seemingly from some kind of relation to the spring action being released. My husband wants to just replace the toilet. I am going to try to find a source for the springs and see if replacing them regularly will solve the problem. Just guessing, I suppose, but for our unit the springs definitely seem to be a factor.

Below is a grainy, amateur nighttime video of the boy's 4x400m from the 1986 CA CIF State Meet final held at 20.50 on Sat, 7-June 1986, at Cerritos College (Norwalk, CA). Though fuzzy, it is one to watch if you get excited about good racing and close finishes.
Keep your eyes peeled on Hawthorne, the team in red and yellow. This was the first season post-Henry Thomas, who'd anchored them to the still-standing 3.07,40 NR set in Texas in '85. Hawthorne had run 3.14,35 to win heat one with Duarte winning the following heat in 3.14,73, with six teams breaking 3.16 in qualifications in the two heats.
This wound up being a Northern CA vs Southern CA final, with So. Cal taking spots 1 and 2, Bay Area teams taking 3, 4, 5, and Southern California schools taking the 6-8, with 9th a DNF (also from Southern California).
American High School's Steve Lewis (grade-11), the 400m state champ earlier in the day at 46,59 (46,50 in his heat), ran a 45,7 anchor to bring his team in at a stil-standing school record of 3.16,12.
Two boys sprinters from this meet (Lewis, 400m & 4x400m; and Watts, 100m/200m/4x100m) would go on to Olympic 400m glory (Lewis in 1988, and Watts in 1992).

The final Barrows Conservation Lecture Series presentation at the Cincinnati Zoo takes place Wednesday, May 15 and features renowned polar bear expert Dr. Steven Amstrup. He has been studying polar bears for over 30 years and, as Thane Maynard discovers in this week's Field Notes, his current work with Polar Bears International is showing some dangerous trends affecting their habitat and ability to feed and survive.
The next guest in the Cincinnati Zoo's Barrows Conservation Lecture Series is acclaimed evolutionary biologist and writer, Dr. Olivia Judson. Her acclaimed book, Dr. Tatiana's Sex Advice to All Creation has been translated into 15 different languages, became a TV special in England and Canada, and was described by evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins as a "winningly sophisticated zoological comedy."
